Practitioner and foundation founder Batmanghelidjh is remarkable for her honesty about the treatment many traumatized children receive. She believes that ongoing stigmatization and negativity gets in the way of recovery, and she seeks to locate ways to acknowledge the truth of these children's experiences. In a series of vignettes and client narratives she locates the changes that need to be made, in both parenting and professional care so children do not have to try to draw on non-existent inner resources to live.
